Abstract :

Nasal glomangioma is a painful swelling that appears in the septum. But most of the glomangioma is a painful, tumor that appears as a solitary encapsulated nodular mass, almost always on the skin. The case of nasal glomangioma was rarely reported. We present a new case of glomangioma of the nasal septum in a 38-year-old woman. The tumor is removed via an intranasal excision under general anesthesia. No recurrence was found at 2 years of follow-up. Other differential diagnosis was done which include a true hemangiopericytoma and a paraganglioma. We will describe the histopathological feature of this tumor and briefly review the literature.
